After all that colour, I thought I would go back to classic black and white. I got this dress from the Guess outlet store in Las Vegas last year. It’s a really nice summer dress, but I don’t wear it that often because I don’t wear white that often. Because I’m a messy person and white always gets dirty. Like I just noticed a tiny blue spot at the bottom of the dress. I have no idea what it is. Nail polish maybe? I can’t think of any other blue substance this dress may have come into contact with. It’s very small and unnoticeable though, thankfully. Wait, I think I’ve gone and stained it slightly in another spot with avocado from lunch. Damnit. I knew this would happen.

My black blazer is new. I got it from Winners. It was just so snazzy looking that I had to try it on. I had intended to save it for the fall, but it was cool enough out today that I thought I would bring it out early. Everyone needs a black blazer as part of their professional wardrobe.

I got my necklace from Sears and my earrings from Payless. My shiny bracelet is from Car Free Day on Main Street and my shiny black ring is from Carnaval del Sol at Conford Pacific Place. Black and white doesn’t have to be dull if you glam it up a bit.

I told you I’ve been wearing more pink this summer. My sister gave me this dress for my birthday last year. She has good taste. I mean, of course she has good taste, she borrows my clothes sometimes. She got it at Bryan’s. I think she actually bought it for herself and then didn’t like the way it looked on her and then decided to gift it to me. But whatever. She’s really into rainbow designs. I wore this dress to the Vancouver Pride Parade last year because it’s so rainbow like.

My pink cardigan is from the Plenty warehouse sale at the Vancouver Convention Centre during Easter long weekend. My necklace and earrings are both from Payless. My bracelet is from Sears and my ring is from the Blim Market street festival downtown last month. I’m kind of liking my hair being dirty and messy. It kind of works. Or maybe it doesn’t. But whatever.

This dress isn’t new, I just haven’t worn it in a while. I got it at Suzy Shier a few years ago. Pink and orange have never really been colours I wear a lot of, although I have been wearing more pink this summer. I don’t own very many orange clothes. But I like this dress. My navy blue cardigan is from La Vie En Rose. I don’t have any orange sweaters, and I felt if I wore my pink one it would just be too bright of an outfit. My pink flip flop necklace is from UBC and my pink flip flop earrings are from Claire’s. I really like these pieces of jewellery because they showcase my love for shoes without me having to actually buy a new pair of shoes. My pink bracelet is from a Christmas craft fair at Steveston Community centre in Richmond last year and my orange ring is from the Greek Day street festival on West Broadway in June.

Red is a strong and bold colour, so why not wear it as often as you can? This dress is more of an orangey red, but it’s still a good red. I got this dress from my favourite street festival vendor at Carnaval del Sol at Pacific Conford Place. It is the same style as my favourite blue dress, but with the added designs and peacock feathers on the bottom. I love this style because you don’t even have to worry about a back and a front because it’s exactly the same either way you put it on. And it’s so comfortable and stretchy and flowy.

I got my red sweater from Sirens, I think. I just noticed there is sadly a hole in the sleeve. So I did what any capable adult would do, and I stapled that hole shut in my office. I’m ever so resourceful with my office supplies. I got my necklace from Greek Day on Broadway and my earrings from Car Free Day on Main Street. I got my ring from UBC. I don’t actually know where I got my bracelet from. It just sort of turned up and I was like alright, I’ll wear it.

I love long dresses because you don’t have to shave and no one will know. Unless you decide to blog about how you haven’t shaved. I got this long dress at the Khatsahlano Street Festival on West 4th last month. I’m used to buying a lot of shorter dresses, so this one was kind of different and I loved the colour scheme. When I left the house this morning, my dad asked “New dress?” and I said “What do you mean by new?” and he said “You haven’t worn it to work yet?” and I said “Yeah.” How much time has to pass before an item is no longer considered new?

I got this purple sweater at H&M at Richmond Centre. My black necklace is from Claire’s and my black bracelet is from a Christmas craft fair at Stevetson Community Centre in Richmond last year. My purple clothespin earrings and my purple ring are both from Greek Day on Broadway. Sadly, my hair is no longer straight. Because I washed it again and it takes a long ass time just to dry, so forget straightening. But I think it’s still slightly less messy than it was when it was longer.

I got this dress at the Caribbean Days festival at Waterfront Park in North Vancouver a few weeks ago. It was the same day that I got my haircut. I liked this dress because I thought it was really unique and I don’t own anything else like it. My black sweater is from Forever 21. My necklace is from Sears and my earrings are from Car Free Day on Main Street. My bracelet is from Carnaval del Sol at Pacific Concord Place and my ring is from the Blim Market festival downtown.

I got this long dress at Ross Dress For Less in the States a few years ago but I never really wore it. I’m just not used to long dresses, but I’m beginning to like them more now. My black cardigan is from Sirens. My pink flip flop necklace is from UBC and my pink flip flop earrings are from Claire’s. My bracelet is from a Christmas craft fair at Steveston Community Centre in Richmond and my ring is from the Greek Day street festival on West Broadway. My nails still match this outfit because there is a little bit of blue in my dress.
